Dependent on the local conditions, several approaches are possible.
In order to avoid unnecessary movements, before installation you should de-
fine how you want to configure the EoC network.
If the antenna system is also used by other participants, you can build up your
own private EoC network.
By securing your EoC network, you protect all information sent via the network
against inadvertent access. This is particularly important in multi-family homes,
office buildings, schools and other buildings.
There are two possibilities to secure your EoC network.
Take a few minutes to read first the parts "Configuration" from page 20 on and
"Configuration software" from page 22 on.

If you would like to build up a private network with the help of the security but-
tons, it is easier if you first create the private network key for two devices via a
short coax cable and then successively transfer it into the further devices. Then
you only need to install the configured devices in the appropriate rooms.

If you want to build a private network using the Configuration software, you
should first create a list of the MAC addresses and their corresponding pass-
words of the EoC modems, in order to assign a private network name to
all modems – centrally from one modem using the Configuration software
(page 22). The MAC address and the corresponding password can be found on
the sticker on the bottom of the device.
